Episode description

There’s no question that we have a clutter problem here in the U.S., consider these statistics:

 

  • 1 out of every 10 Americans rent off site storage - the fastest growing segment of commercial real estate industry over the past four decades.

  • We spend one year of our lives looking for lost items.

  • U.S. consumers buy 40% of the world’s toys, but bear only 3% of the world’s children.

  • The 7 Emotional Blocks to Why We Can’t Let Go of Our Stuff, which include:

  1. My stuff keeps me in the past

  2. My stuff tells me who I am

  3. The stuff I'm avoiding

  4. My fantasy stuff for my fantasy life

  5. I'm not worth my good stuff

  6. Trapped with other people's stuff

  7. The stuff I keep paying for

  • Living with Less.  Aspiring to be a minimalist is a great goal but difficult to obtain. Tracy shares the first steps to living with less stuff.

  • How living with clutter directly impacts our health and wellness.
